Description

On today's podcast, Jason kicks things off with a quick update on the Summer of Soccer. England got a big win in one of the wildest finishes you'll ever see on the pitch, but that pales in comparison to what we've got coming up on Saturday: Messi vs. Neymar - Argentina vs. Brazil - for the Copa America Championship. If you weren't a soccer fan already, tune in on Saturday and I promise you'll become one. Later, Jason tells us why he has a big problem with all of the sports media talking heads trying to make a big deal out of Aaron Rodgers’ non-committal response to a question about his future in Green Bay. It’s become increasingly clear that Rodgers isn’t going to take a public stand either way, so let’s stop trying to read into everything he says (or doesn't say). Until he actually misses training camp practices, this is the biggest non-story in sports. Finally, FOX Sports NBA writer Yaron Weitzman swings by to discuss if all the injuries to the biggest stars has killed some of the buzz of these NBA Playoffs, if we should expect Chris Paul to test free agency if the Phoenix Suns end up winning the championship, why most still expect the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers to be the favorites over the Suns out West next season, if this season has proven that there's no one right way to build a great team, the pros and cons of trading Ben Simmons, the 'Kingmaker' behind the scenes of NBA front offices, what - if anything - the Milwaukee Bucks can do to come back in Game 2, and much more!
